Axial loading – Normal stress in axially loaded members Example – Average normal stress 1. A solid circular cylindrical rod AB and a hollow circular cylindrical rod BC having a 0.5 in wall thickness are welded together and loaded as shown. (a) Determine the average normal stress in rod BC . (b) If the magnitude of the compressive stress in rod AB is 2.83 ksi, find the load
